The United Nations centre of expertise on pooled funding
The Multi-Partner Trust Fund Office (MPTFO) provides fund design and administration services to UN entities, national governments, and other partners.
These integrated ‘Administrative Agent’ (AA) services are provided from fund inception to closure, with the MPTFO in an impartial and independent role, separate from implementing entities, ensuring proper fiduciary checks and balances.
The underlying premise of pooled funding is the recognition that some challenges cannot be overcome by individual action, and that sustainable development – and the SDGs – will only be achieved when we work together.
The MPTF Office carefully curates a fund portfolio that cover a broad range of thematic categories. From humanitarian, peace and transition to climate action or development, funds are used to implement initiatives that accelerate SDG progress, generating results on local, regional, global scales.

On 8 October 2025, the United Nations Headquarters in New York hosted the launch of the 2025 Financing the United Nations Development System Report, co-organized by the Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation (DHF), UNDP Multi-Partner Trust Fund Office (MPTFO), and the Permanent Missions of Kenya and Sweden to the UN.
The South Sudan Reconciliation, Stabilization, and Resilience Trust Fund (South Sudan RSRTF) was established in 2018 to provide strategic financing to integrated programmes that together lessen the destructive drivers of conflict and create more stable conditions to realize development and resilience objectives. Through its area-based programmes (ABP), RSRTF brings together a diverse coalition of partners, including UNMISS, UN agencies, non-governmental organizations, local/ national partners, and grassroot level stakeholders, to implement integrated programming built around three pillars: Reconciliation, Stabilization, and Resilience.
Across Africa, the Middle East and, most recently, Latin America and the Caribbean, hundreds of UN colleagues have come together to rethink how the system works —and learn— as one.
